Courtney Barnett<\/strong><\/a> has been courting, barnstorming and netting audiences worldwide with her new album, Sometimes I Sit and Think, and Sometimes I Just Sit<\/strong><\/em> and tour.\u00a0 Today Barnett<\/strong> has revealed a new, animated official video for song Dead Fox<\/strong><\/em> off the new album.<\/p>\n

The video’s directors, Rory Kerr<\/strong> and Paul Ruttledge<\/strong>, had this to say about the video (and its depictions of a couple being run over–all in good fun, eh?):<\/p>\n

\u201cWe liked how politically loaded and conversational the lyrics are. We wanted the animation to have a stylistic and organic look, hence most of the drawings were done on paper rather than digitally. To further complement the lyrics, we thought it would be funny to have the animals in the video look as cynical as possible, as if they\u2019d had enough with how humans are treating them.\u201d<\/p>\n
